Chapter 4, Problem 4.4P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The name of the given compound is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The systematic naming of organic compound is given by IUPAC nomenclature. The naming of organic compound is done such that the structure of organic compound is correctly interpreted from the name.

Rules for writing IUPAC name from structural formula are:

1. First identify the longest carbon chain.

2. The next step is to identify the functional groups attached to the longest chain.

3. Identify the position, location, and number of the substituents bonded to the carbon chain.

4. Use prefix di, tri, tetra if same type of substituent is present.
